Fuel pump connection
« on: Tuesday,May 31, 2016, 01:40:56 PM »
I am installing my fuel lines on my TCS. It gas  an ac Delco mechanical pump. With glass bowl. I am missing one of the fuel line connectors. So I am after one. A threaded male connector and the pipe, I Don't think it's  1/4 npt. Anyone got any ideas?

I could be wrong but I think you have to buy the full thing, is this the feed to the carbs? I know Banks have them   I may have the wrong end of the stick here.

I got loads of those connectors from QED in Quorn.

They are like gas compression connectors. You just fit them on copper pipe with the olive that comes with the fitting.

If it is a compression fitting, then a hardware store, plumbing or industrial supply.
